No, there’s an offhand mention or two, but nothing impactful. The most important tie is Pike being aware of his fate, but they recap that pretty thoroughly.

This toggle allows you to opt out of having profiling used for future decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you.

The what now?

This sounds strangely ominous.

I will always root for Trek to succeed. I’m hoping that by including Rachel Garrett, this isn’t too timey-wimey and we get a well written TUC-TNG lost era story.

He’s also been regularly compromised by sketchy backdoors placed by the manufacturer in his firmware and remote code execution exploits.

But to be fair, anybody on the bridge who knows how to work the consoles could kill everyone aboard if they wanted.

I too prefer spending less money for a better experience.

Democratic Gov Tim Walz, who vetoed a bill last year that would have boosted pay for Uber and Lyft drivers, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he was concerned because so many depend on those services, including disabled people.

I get the sentiment, but relying on private for-profit companies to provide basic transportation services in a city is stupid. That’s how Minneapolis got in this situation.

It’s really hard for me to feel sorry for any of the parties involved so the ethics feel weird.

I guess the law firm saved the shareholders from being fleeced and they want their cut. It’s obscene, but still a small fraction of what Elon would’ve walked off with.

I gave it fair chance and watched the first three seasons. There were a few bright spots here and there, but I never connected with the characters or felt like the writing was up to par. I still hope they pull off a good final season, but I’m not planning to watch it any time soon.

Anything involving Romulus’ star means that ‘saving the planet’ is completely impossible.

Eventually, yes, but if it were possible to collapse the exploding star in a way that didn’t totally roast the planet it would buy a fair bit of time to continue the evacuation. It’ll get very cold and photosynthesis will stop, but with enough power and food, the population could hang on for several years if needed.

They’re not, but a little cumbersome to carry around and find power on a heist.

There are loads of little pocket sized battery powered jammers available now.

Yes. Because it still works and hasn’t all been replaced yet.

The burden is on the telcos to prove otherwise and justify all the subsidies they got to wire unprofitable areas.

I don’t really see that happening tho. She barely criticizes Trump as it is. Once she loses, she’ll go back to publicly fellating Trump and saying what a great man he is. I’d love to see her go full Liz Cheney, but she’s far too self-serving for that.

About damn time.

After living through the last few elections, I’m not going to bet on whether Biden vs Haley or Biden vs Trump will lead to a better result. But I really don’t see how helping Haley would actually accomplish anything. Even if the Democrats made a big (wasted) effort to push & campaign for Haley, it’s not going to be nearly enough to make her the nominee.

Absent the Supreme Court declaring Trump ineligible (don’t hold your breath) It’s going to be Biden vs Trump. Prepare for that. Messing with the Republican’s sham primary is a waste of effort and a distraction from more constructive things Democrats could be doing like getting their voters registered and ready to go to the polls in November.

Yes, but the judge is right wing hack and doesn’t care.

Do they mean Democrats would prefer another candidate or Repuplicans would?

That’s probably true for both parties. A large majority of voters didn’t want a Biden/Trump rematch, but here we are.

Most people shouldn’t buy a home printer at all anymore. Unless you’re a crafter or work in a field that still uses lots of paper (i.e. law) they’re not worth it.

It’s a rapidly shrinking market and HP knows there’s no saving it so I guess they’re following the cable company playbook.

Squeeze your remaining customers as hard as possible before the music stops

And it hasn’t been tested because researching the “best” method for executing humans is abhorrent and the scientific and medical communities have ethical standards.

But the State of Alabama doesn’t, a feature it shares with other regimes responsible for the worst atrocities in history.

Oh, I very much doubt that he’s the only billionaire who’s written a letter like this to Google in the past year.
